delimiter detection error

[tooptoop4]

For a pipe delimited file it is being detected as space delimited when i feed in around 1000 rows (however csv lib correctly detects pipe), if i only feed in 100 rows then clevercsv is also able to detect pipe

ie like below data but 55 columns wide
"Private Company"|"Point Rd"

Hi @tooptoop4, thanks for reporting this issue. Are you able to share the file? I may be able to fix the problem

unfortunately it contains private data

i have another case where 100 rows seems more accurate (it correctly picks , ) but 1200 rows picks \

Results can be a bit noisy if you don't read the entire file. Theoretically, it might be the case that the "key" to reading the file correctly is only the last row. Therefore, if time allows, it's generally recommended to detect the dialect using the entire file. If you have a case where detection fails on the entire file, please let me know
